"He is a strong, powerful and quick centre-forward, with a real eye for goal and will increase our attacking options in the second half of the season."Jurgen already has a prolific goal record with PSV in the Dutch top division, and it is one we hope he can continue here with us in the Premier League."</blockquote>
